Devouring Earth Zone Event

[Chris24601]

Pinging off a comment I made in the general forums... back in live (I think it was around the time First Ward was added) the devs ran a one-time event involving a Devouring Earth invasion of Atlas Park that culminated in Hamidon showing up and needing to be beaten back.

 

My suggestion is... dig through the spaghetti code to find it and maybe trigger it every so often (or write a trigger akin to the Rikti raids where completing X spawns it... say the Eden trial or a Hami raid) so it can be another option for zone events at (hopefully) less resource cost than having to code a brand new one from scratch.

I bet that was manually run by some GMs.

 

Now on the other hand, I heard there was a multizone Rularu invasion once (but it predates the level scaling code so it went BADLY for the player base...)

 

You know there is a hero zone that doesn't have a unique zone event other than Rikti flyovers and it's Founder's Falls. It would be cool if there was a zone event to prevent a breakout from Eden into FF culminating in a giant monster.  Maybe a GM version of Terra...
